Gentek Siding Complaints

Share Follow @Atl_Injury

Gentek siding complaints among property owners have been reported, due to what one lawsuit terms a “substantial defect.” Many homeowners have claimed that they experienced problems with the paint peeling, cracking, and chipping on Gentek aluminum and steel siding. Though the product comes with a lifetime warranty for individuals and a 50-year warranty for corporations, the company has allegedly failed to uphold the terms of these warranties. Additionally, it has been alleged that the company knew of the defects in its product and continued to sell it for over a decade.

If you are a homeowner experiencing problems with Gentek siding, contact our product liability lawyers to see if you are eligible to participate in a Gentek class action lawsuit.

Gentek Siding Defects

Gentek steel siding and aluminum siding have reportedly presented problems to numerous homeowners. Complaints have mostly centered around issues with the paint on the siding, and have included reports of:

Chipping
Peeling
Cracking
Discoloration

Although many of these homeowners are under warranty with regard to their Gentek siding, it has been alleged that the company is not upholding their end of the agreement. According to a Gentek siding lawsuit, homeowners have received a number of insufficient responses to their warranty claims, including small amounts of monetary compensation or offers to repaint the siding. Neither of these satisfies Gentek's liability under the warranty, the suit claims. Furthermore, repainting the siding could allegedly prove problematic for a number of reasons, including inconsistency in color and the potential for other areas of siding to peel down the line, resulting in numerous repaintings over years.
